What exactly are you implying by linking this article?
That Facebook has worked at least one employee literally to death.
This basis of that claim is so laughable...

> There are rumors that Qin may have endured bullying at Facebook, Young said. However, Young is not an employee at the company and he said that most of the protesters did not work there, either.

I don’t really want to debate the case out of respect for Mr. Qin, but it was easy to observe that he was a SEV owner at that time, and due to present at SEV review, and fighting against a nag robot constantly enforcing a “due date” a week ahead of what he needed and tried to configure in the task tracking tool. Anything beyond that is of course my own speculation, but I feel comfortable saying it is an extremely stressful and unhealthy environment. Even more so when getting a bad performance review could cascade into you losing your job, losing your visa, and having to wrap up your entire life and GTFO within 30 (iirc?) days. Or find a new job within that short time frame that will sponsor your visa. I don’t think you should be so quick to dismiss such a case as merely a personal matter.
